UNM INFORMATION ASSURANCE SCHOLARSHIP FOR SERVICE

新墨西哥大学（UNM）提议在其现有的网络安全军团(R)服务奖学金（SFS）项目中增加四组新的本科生和研究生，这些学生在整个课程中都有很强的应用导向经验。该项目将通过为毕业生提供通用计算和安全技能，对联邦劳动力的网络安全能力产生直接影响。该项目强调以应用为导向的经验，如国家网络竞赛、课件开发、防欺诈审计和K-12推广，将整合教育和研究。新墨西哥大学是一所西班牙裔服务机构，它招收的印第安人比国内任何一所研究型大学都多。招聘工作将集中在吸引少数族裔和女性候选人上。这笔拨款将加强与数博军团雇主的现有关系，并增加实习机会的数量和种类。该计划的成果将广泛传播，以促进独特课程特征的复制，培养能够通过直接解决相关技术，行为，组织和经济领域成功捍卫国家网络空间的毕业生。该项目旨在培养具有强大领导能力和公共服务承诺的熟练网络安全专业人员。该计划将严谨的实践学习与各种网络安全领域和相关学科的研究、专业发展和推广活动相结合。SFS学生参与研究项目，重点涵盖技术，行为，组织和经济领域。项目评估活动将包括收集定量和定性数据，以完善项目，并将结果传播给学术和专业团体。教学团队包括九名网络安全教职员工和代表新墨西哥大学广泛学术部门的多元化支持教师以及来自行业的专家。除课程作业外，项目内容还包括：由新墨西哥大学、桑迪亚国家实验室和英特尔公司共同设计的研究研讨会，重点关注创造性问题解决理论；每月专业发展工作坊；还有一个在线学习社区。CyberCorps(R)的学生将与联邦机构的工作人员在现实世界的项目中合作，以获得实践经验，并增加实习和就业机会。

The University of New Mexico (UNM) proposes to add four new cohorts of undergraduate and graduate students to their existing CyberCorps(R) Scholarship for Service (SFS) program in cybersecurity with strong application-oriented experiences throughout the curriculum. The project will have an immediate impact on the cybersecurity capabilities of the federal workforce by providing graduates with general computing and security skills. The program's emphasis on application-oriented experiences such as national cyber-competitions, courseware development, fraud prevention audits, and K-12 outreach, will integrate education and research. UNM is a Hispanic Serving Institution and it enrolls more Native Americans than any other research university in the country. Recruitment efforts will focus on attracting minority and female candidates. The grant will enhance existing relationships with CyberCorps employers and increase the number and variety of internships. The program results will be disseminated widely to facilitate replication of unique curriculum features that produce graduates who can successfully defend the nation's cyberspace by directly addressing related technical, behavioral, organizational, and economic domains.The program is graduating skilled cybersecurity professionals with strong leadership skills and a commitment to public service. The program integrates rigorous, hands-on learning with research, professional development and outreach activities across a variety of cybersecurity fields and related disciplines. SFS students participate in research projects with emphasis ranging across technical, behavioral, organizational, and economic domains. Program evaluation activities will include collecting quantitative and qualitative data to refine the program and disseminating outcomes to academic and professional communities. The instructional team includes nine cybersecurity faculty members and a diverse group of supporting faculty representing a wide range of academic departments at UNM and experts from industry. In addition to the coursework, program components include: a research seminar co-designed by UNM, Sandia National Laboratory and Intel Corporation which focuses on the Theory of Inventive Problem Solving; monthly professional development workshops; and an online learning community. CyberCorps(R) students will collaborate on real-world projects with federal agency personnel to gain practical experience and enhance internship and job placement prospects.
